Located in
South Garo Hills District of
Meghalaya, Boldak Matchu Karam is a sturdy Boldak tree having a mysterious depression around its trunk as if eroded by the constant tethering of animals on it.
A popular folklore among the Garos says that the spirits of the dead tie the animals slaughtered for their funeral to this tree while taking rest close by. When one such tree was felled by strong winds, another tree in the vicinity started showing the same symptoms.
